The number of homeless in the United States has grown by a third during the Biden years despite steady economic growth since the end of the pandemic. So how did this happen? Why did a rising tide not only fail to lift all boats, but now threatens to drown an even greater number of Americans living on the margins -- and under bridges, on sidewalks and in their cars?

Jimmy and McHenry then discuss where the tens of billions of dollars that have been allocated to solve the homelessness crisis really went since they're obviously not being used as intended by the voting public.

This week on CounterSpin: Dog whistles are supposed to be silent except for those they're intended to reach. But as listeners know, the right wing has gotten much more overt and loud about their intention to defeat the prospect of multiracial democracy. We unpack the latest weaponized trope — the “DEI hire” — with anti-racism educator and author Tim Wise. Trying to help unhoused people and trying to make them invisible are different things. Keith McHenry, cofounder of Food Not Bombs, joins us to talk about the recent Supreme Court ruling that gave state authorities more power to dismantle the encampments in which many people live, with no guarantee they will land anywhere more safe.   The post Tim Wise on ‘DEI Hires' / Keith McHenry on Criminalizing the Unhoused appeared first on KPFA.

Food Not Bombs was founded in 1980 to provide direct aid to people while educating about the perversion of spending so much on the Military-Industrial Complex (MIC) while tens of millions of people do not have the basic necessities.

This episode we spoke with Keith McHenry about Food Not Bombs, Anarchism, and the radical potential of feeding people as a political act. Show Notes: Follow us on Twitter at @FoodThoughtPod, and you can drop us a line at ThoughtAboutFood on Gmail. Leave us a review! It helps people find the show. Keith McHenry is one of the founders of Food Not Bombs Keith has written a number of books, including Hungry For Peace: How you can help end poverty and war with Food Not Bombs and The Anarchist Cookbook (not the one you're thinking of, but a "real anarchist cookbook" as Keith says). To find a local Food Not Bombs near you, or for resources on starting one, check out the Food Not Bombs website. The one nearest to me is the Food Not Bombs RGV branch. The intro and outro music is "Whiskey Before Breakfast" which is both a great traditional song and not an impediment to getting served by Food Not Bombs if you're hungry, because they serve anyone, sober or not. It was performed and shared by The Dan River Ramblers under a Creative Commons license.

Food Not Bombs operates under the philosophy that mutual aid and meal sharing serve as powerful tools for resistance within a capitalistic, exploitative system. With autonomous chapters spread out across the globe, they each share three central tenants: meals are free to anyone stoned or sober, each chapter is independent and relies on consensus decision-making, and people involved are dedicated to solidarity, not charity. To learn more about the movement, KCSB's Ashley Rusch sat down with co-founder and activist/author/artist Keith McHenry.

We spend the hour with Food Not Bombs cofounder, Keith McHenry, remotely joining me and folks from Defense Fund PDX here in Laurelhurst Park, which has become a focal point in the movement in Portland to stop the sweeps of tent encampments, and treat the housing crisis like the crisis that it is.

Food Not Bombs cofounder Keith McHenry and I were on the radio show, Flashpoints, on KPFA last Friday, talking about stopping the sweeps of tent encampments across the country, police torture, and other subjects.  Here's the show, archived for posterity.

My friend Keith McHenry is one of many people around the world who has been held in a cage like the one he drew, of the secret black site where the San Francisco police tortures their prisoners, in such a way that leaves no mark.  They kept him in there for days on end, on multiple occasions. I wrote the lyrics, and the brilliant Olympia folk punk phenomenon known as Virtual Bird set it to music, and that's Jane Reynolds delivering the vocals. The song goes out to all the victims of torture, everywhere, who have been held in such cages.

An extra special, extended discussion with Food Not Bombs cofounder, Keith McHenry, on the occasion of the 40th anniversary of the first meal served! A fascinating discussion, Keith shares a lot of entertaining, exciting, and terrifying stories about his experiences as an organizer and artist.

Today on Sojourner Truth, we continue our ongoing coverage of the coronavirus pandemic, focusing on how homeless and unsheltered people are organizing to survive. Millions of people across the United States are now at risk of becoming homeless because of the crisis and its economic impact. According to the National Alliance to End Homelessness, over 550,000 people experience homelessness on a single night. California has the biggest homeless population in the country, with 129,000 experiencing homelessness on a single night. Many of those are women, children and people of color. Campaigners for homeless rights, however, point out that these figures are likely low estimates, since they leave out dorm-less college students, people who are living in their cars, people who are temporarily staying with friends or family, and the housing insecure. In Los Angeles, there are at least 60,000 homeless people on the streets every night. Homeless encampments are springing up in every city across the United States. Nearly 140 million people in the United States live at or close to the poverty line, according to the Institute for Policy Studies. Women and children represent 73 percent of poor people in the United States, with a majority of them being Black and Brown. On Thursday, April 2, the National Union of the Homeless hosted a national online press call and teach-in entitled, Homeless, Not Helpless. The teach-in was dedicated to shedding light on how homeless and unsheltered communities are responding to the coronavirus crisis and how grassroots organizations fighting poverty can help. It was streamed online by the Peoples Forum NYC. Speakers included: Crystal Sanchez of the Sacramento Homeless Union; Patrick Braswell of the Rochester Homeless Union; Alicia Kuhl of the Santa Cruz Homeless Union; Anthony Prince, National Legal Counsel for the Homeless Union; the Rev. Dr. Liz Theoharis, joint coordinator of the national Poor Peoples Campaign: A National Call for Moral Revival; Savina Martin with the Massachusetts Homeless Union; Katherine Bryant from Science for the People; and Keith McHenry with Food Not Bombs. The event was moderated by Robert Aguirre, who was the leader of the largest homeless encampment in the United States at one time (referred to as The Jungle in San Jose, California) as well as Kristin Colangelo, who is the national organizational secretary for the Homeless Union. Today, you will hear exclusive audio from this national online press call and teach in as part of our ongoing coverage of the coronavirus and homelessness.

Today on Sojourner Truth, we continue our ongoing coverage of the coronavirus pandemic, focusing on how homeless and unsheltered people are organizing to survive. Millions of people across the United States are now at risk of becoming homeless because of the crisis and its economic impact. According to the National Alliance to End Homelessness, over 550,000 people experience homelessness on a single night. California has the biggest homeless population in the country, with 129,000 experiencing homelessness on a single night. Many of those are women, children and people of color. Campaigners for homeless rights, however, point out that these figures are likely low estimates, since they leave out dorm-less college students, people who are living in their cars, people who are temporarily staying with friends or family, and the housing insecure. In Los Angeles, there are at least 60,000 homeless people on the streets every night. Homeless encampments are springing up in every city across the United States. Nearly 140 million people in the United States live at or close to the poverty line, according to the Institute for Policy Studies. Women and children represent 73 percent of poor people in the United States, with a majority of them being Black and Brown. On Thursday, April 2, the National Union of the Homeless hosted a national online press call and teach-in entitled, Homeless, Not Helpless.

Keith shares the history, vision, principles, and challenges of organizing Food Not Bombs, which will be celebrating it's 39th anniversary on May 24th, 2019. Because Keith had so much information to share, and so many insights and anecdotes, this episode is a little longer than most. There was so much to talk about that we had to break it up into two episodes! The next episode will focus in detail on the seven steps to starting a Food Not Bombs chapter in your area as described on the Food Not Bombs website. As such, we decided not to include a Solo Praxis segment in this episode out of respect for our listeners' time, but we will be including one on the next episode.

For months, the City of Santa Cruz has struggled to close the Ross Camp, a homeless camp at Highway 1 and River Street. Here's the latest chapter: a U.S. district court will decide whether the city can legally close the camp. We talk with Santa Cruz Police Chief Andy Mills and City Attorney Tony Condotti on how the court hearing went on Friday in San Jose. We also hear from Food Not Bombs co-founder Keith McHenry, who is part of a group that sued the city over the camp's pending closure. He says closing the camp doesn't give a real solution to the people living there.

Addressing the Homeless Solution- Keith McHenry, Co-founder of "Food Not Bombs" has been helping the homeless for over 38 years. He has agreed to join MZ for a discussion about not only the homeless problem, but also about the solution. MZ has covered lots of topics on his show but very few of this significance. Join us for a look at a problem that affects not only Santa Cruz but also an increasing number of cities nation wide.

Food Not Bombs has proven to be an effective project for social change. For the past 35 years, volunteers have served the homeless vegan and vegetarian meals around the world. Often described as a movement it all began when the first volunteers were arrested for feeding the homeless. In this episode we get Up Cose with Keith McHenry, Co-Founder of Food Not Bombs and Author of "Hungry for Peace". Keith will share how it all started and the challenges volunteers face in many states where it's now illegal to feed the homeless. Keith passionately makes the case that we should take action to end hunger, poverty, and war providing shocking evidence that our future is in peril if we sit by and do nothing.
